Steeped in Hate, Saved by Love

Dr. Richard C. Harris and Dr. Kenneth E. Stephens will share their personal stories along with strategies about how to communicate better across racial lines at a special event at Redeemer on 25 May at 6 p.m. in the church.

Harris was Grand Dragon of the Ku Klux Klan in Indiana in the 1970s before meeting Christ and becoming an anti-racism activist. Stephens’ brother was murdered by two white men, and he harbored a hatred for white people before God helped him heal.

Today, Harris and Stephens are both professors at Southeastern University and associate pastors at Good Hope Missionary Baptist Church, a predominantly African American church in Bartow.
